Brand Manager realme Sri Lanka Ranura Kaduwela elaborates:
“realme C21Y is a newest model that bolsters our “Dare to Leap” theme. It is the “Dare to Leap” spirit that moves us to innovate, which made realme to be the world's fastest-growing smartphone brand.
C21Y’s large display has a Screen-to-body Ratio of 89.5%.
This, combined with 20:9 aspect ratio and IPS LCD display equipped with Mini-drop makes C21Y more than a smartphone-it’s a 16.5cm (6.5 inch screen) device at the price of a midrange smartphone.
Its Mini-drop display brings C21Y’s larger field of view.
C21Y is accredited with TÜV Rheinland certification which demands a rigorous series of tests before its awarded.
The certification to be successful needs to complete 23 major tests.
realme C21Y successfully passed all these tests. C21Y is also the first phone model in the midrange segment to introduce a triple camera.
A special feature of this camera is that the B&W lens specially set up to capture B&W images and portraits.”
The larger field of view based on the Mini-drop design in C21Y provides high resolution game, audio and video experience, so that the users can access a wider field of view.
The visual disturbances are lesser since the aim is an experience of near-full screen.
Visual disturbances create eye strain and such disturbances take place due to lower resolutions and pixel density.
The internal structure of C21Y screen adopts a newly-upgraded tech process, which draws the components closer to each other so that the area of pixel droplets is reduced creating the Mini-drop screen ratio that runs up to 89.5%.
This stronger ratio reduces visual disturbances while giving C21Y’s 6.5 inch large and full-view.
C21Y is accredited with TÜV Rheinland certification used for consumer electronics as well as an industry standard for major markets around the world.
According to TÜV Rheinland's new Quality certification standards, most test conditions are based on the three-year life cycle of smartphone.

Overall, most test conditions of TUV Smartphone High Reliability Certification are based on the three-year life cycle of smartphone.
